BRUX Barrels

Tom, I don't want to burden you with those barrels,and the other one's are still pretty good. But i have a very new Kreiger you may use for your garden........ LOL... jim
 
JD, I don't see them as over priced, when you have to have them chambered and a brake installed. Those add up to more than the barrel. That is two records and a National win with a Brux i know of,not bad for a small company..... jim
 
Brux barrels sucks, service is terrible. Stop using them so I can get mine done. I have to bring Norm liquid refreshments now and order Ken stocks or they don't even let me in the door. I do think they have a couple national records with my name on them hanging the office. I recommend for my own benefit that everybody stay away from them. James Croft can tell you about the lousy service. I would like to be able to go someplace and just buy what I need without having the mandatory wait and all you guys do is slow me down! Honestly though, I couldn't begin to play this game without Norm Brux. Every time I come up with some stupid idea he makes it work. No one better in the industry and a true friend to many many people. Ken is kind of hard to deal with (hope he reads this). You will see a Brux barrel at or near the top in Raton.

Bob, you will see a Brux at the top, because I'll be shooting one and I plan to win. ;D

I just bore scoped three new Brux barrels and the finish is the best i ever seen. No tool marks,I think some of the others should see this Quality Brux is putting out....... Yes they hammer....... jim
Have your bore scoped a benchmark? I have a brux going a 30 cal build but want to also give benchmark a try on my 6.5x284. I have heard they are the finest finished barrels made, just wondering if you can confirm that or give me your opinion of them.

I have never seen a benchmark or owned one, but I can tell you they are not winning any matches in F-Open. Krieger, Bartlein, and Brux are the top three.
 
Dearest Eric, please see other thread, I know what your using. Just shot today, won't scare you with the details but bring your A game.

Let's make it interesting. How about a bet between you and me for the highest score of the two?

I bet you a $2 bill and a cold beer for the World Championship. What says you?

Thanks Erik, have you borescoped a krieger, bartlein, and brux? How do the finishes compare? My gunsmith (who primarily builds f-class rifles) recommends benchmark, brux, and krieger but also like bartlein.

Sound good, can't loose either way. Hope you like Bud Lite. Bet I got a better hat than you down there.

Well, it's not a fashion show, so let's not go there! ;D

I've borescoped all three and they are comparable. None show tools marks, all are uniformly lapped and they all shoot well.

Steve, Mine is old but all that Brass! Sparkles like gold. Doesn't Eric shoot a SEB? they are common!

I do shoot a SEB, but there will only be another one like mine. It's unique and you will see what I mean when you see it. And mine is chrome, it shines like a diamond in a goat's a$$! ;D
